Squalene and the Gluten Free Diet
Squalene is a naturally occurring lipid that is found in high concentrations in shark liver oil, but it can also be sourced from plants like olives, amaranth seed, and rice bran. It is widely used in the cosmetic industry for its moisturizing properties and is also found in some dietary supplements. Squalene is often hydrogenated to become squalane, which is more stable and commonly used in skincare products.
